COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONBottled. Pasteurised.
A smooth, full-bodied stout with a refreshing hoppy aftertaste. Brewed with proportions of Black Malt for colour and ’toast’ flavour and Brown Malt for dryness. Based on a recipe over 100 years old, brewing was revived in 1996 after a break of 79 years.

50 cl bottle. No yeast in bottom. Dark brown colour with a weak head. Very nice smooth aroma of roasted malt. A really pleasant mouthfeel of roasted malt and some coffee. Great taste not bitter but some dry.

Dark colour but not much of a head. Aroma is complex: coffee, chocolate and christmas cake fruit. Taste is of burnt toast and coffee, reminiscent of tiramisu. Sweetness at first; at the end comes a moment of sourness followed by bitterness. I’m not a regular stout drinker, so this was interesting, even intriguing, though I don’t think it will become a favourite pint

Pours dark brown with a thin disappearing tan head. Nice sweet malt and chocolate aroma with creamy hints. Roasted flavor with coffee and chocolate notes. Quite full and a nice taste. Not the fullest stout, but still very nice.
